Microsoft seems unable to largen the gap.

So Sony could do it given time.

It'll depend on price cuts and bundled games mostly. Xbox 360 pretty much owned the PS3 last year during the holidays and that could easily happen again this year. I'm expected a price cut announcement from Microsoft at the E3 though. Sony will probably follow suit soon after. A $150 360 Arcade Slim will sell like crazy, even moreso if Microsoft finally decides to put a real HDD in it. With a Kinect price cut as well, they are going to move a lot of systems this holiday. I don't the PS3 catching up until after the next-gen of consoles starts.

I doubt they can especially when they drop the price for that model, as the prices for the smallest manufactured HDDs are pretty constant. Right now thats 160/250/320 (they all have nearly the same price) for normal (ofc there are smaller "special use" HDDs)  HDDs and that's what the premium model uses .. a (for example) 40GB HDD right now would cost MS more than one of those.
